Stihl MS 181 C‑BE Petrol Chainsaw
The Stihl MS 181 C‑BE petrol chainsaw is a premium homeowner-grade model that combines power, comfort, and convenience. It’s ideal for tasks such as firewood cutting, pruning, and small tree felling. With its advanced features, the Stihl MS 181 C-BE petrol chainsaw offers effortless performance for around-the-home use.
Quick, Tool-Free Chain Tensioning
Thanks to STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning, you can adjust the chain tension easily without tools. Simply flip the sprocket cover and turn the adjusting wheel—left to loosen, right to tighten—for hassle-free adjustments.
Effortless Starting with ErgoStart
The MS 181 C-BE features ErgoStart, which reduces the effort needed to pull the starter cord. A built-in spring mechanism makes starting almost effortless, even with a slow pull.
Efficient 2‑MIX Engine Performance
Powered by a 31.8 cc 2‑MIX engine delivering 1.5 kW (2 hp), this chainsaw provides smooth torque and up to 20% better fuel efficiency—while reducing emissions and delivering stable power.
Extended Air Filter Life
The pre-separation air filter system helps remove large debris before it reaches the filter. This prolongs service intervals and keeps the engine running reliably during dusty yard work.
Comfort and Maintenance Made Easy
Weighing just 4.6 kg (powerhead only), this saw is balanced and easy to handle. The anti-vibration system protects your hands, while tool-free fuel and oil caps and transparent tanks make maintenance quick and clean.
Ready for Handyman Tasks
The MS 181 C-BE comes with conditioner-standard: a 16″ guide bar, side-mounted chain tensioning, bumper spikes, and a master control lever that simplifies choke, throttle, and stop functions. It’s a reliable choice for homeowners who want pro-level ease of use.
